Giles Free Speech Zone

The purpose of the "Giles Free Speech Zone" is to identify problems of concern to the people of Giles County, to discuss them in a gentlemanly and civil manner, while referring to the facts and giving evidence to back up whatever claims are made, making logical arguments that avoid any use of fallacy, and, hopefully, to come together in agreement, and find a positive solution to the problem at hand.

Financial Management Committee
Members appointed by statute: County Executive Janet Vanzant, Interim Director of Schools J.B. Smith, Highway Commissioner Barry Hyatt, Budget Committee Chair Stoney Jackson. The three commissioners chosen to fill the open slots were,  Tommy Pollard, Louise Faulkner, Roger Reedy.

These three committee slots were once again filled with commissioners after the County Executive violated state law and defined nominations as being open only to commissioners. The Financial Management Act  plainly states and it is repeated in the CTAS Manual that any citizen can be appointed to the three undesignated slots, but when it's only a state law vs this County Executive why would anyone expect the law to be followed?

Ambulance committee, biggest area of waste and or corruption, highway committee, biggest need for funds, budget committee, most important committee of all. Pollard is chairman of the first two and member of the third. This is your big chance Tommy. With help from your fellow commissioners from District 5 you all can make a big difference. Your supporters are behind you.

If the hwy dept would manage their money right, they would have enough. They dont need anymore money to waist on fancy trucks and more employees to hold shovels or sit in their trucks. Wait and see if Beech dont bring up a wheel tax for them soon. Maybe this new committee will hold their spending down.
